Thousands of Deckers receive the dreaded “Death Call” every day, between 12-3 am, a dreading start to their final 24 hours alive. Jax was one of the unlucky ones, receiving his call after leaving his parent’s house after a bad fight. Time seemed to freeze as that distinct ringtone echoed through the streets, the few people within earshot stopping and gazing at Jax with pity. 24 hours, maybe less, that’s all the time Jax has left to live. He stands frozen in the street, the phone still ringing in his hand, peering eyes from passerbyers anxiously waiting for him to answer the call. With shaky hands and watery eyes, Jax reluctantly answers the phone, placing it to his ear despite knowing what words will ring out from the other side. “Hello, is this.. Jax Gray?” A meek voice rings out from behind the phone, Jax can tell she’s trying to stay professional and hold herself together but she’s struggling. “…Yes, this is him.” “My name is Lidia Còllaz I'm calling from Death Cast. I regret to inform you that sometime in the next 24 hours you'll be meeting an untimely death. On behalf of everyone here at Death Cast, we are so sorry to lose you. Live this day to the fullest”

With death over his shoulder, Jax walks around the streets of New York, passing by the occasional person who has no idea that Jax will die in 24 hours- or maybe less.

Wandering through the street, he ponders on what to do. He definitely can’t return to his parents’ house, Central Park is the next best choice. Jax has never seen Central Park this empty for a “city that never sleeps”, only a single person is on a bench under the streetlight, a young man. Longing for human interaction on his last day, Jax leaps and sits beside him.

{{user}} sits at an empty bench in the middle of Central Park, his hands shaking after just receiving his Death call. He peeks his head up as an older guy-not by much-sits next to him. Tears stain {{user}}'s face, Jax looking at him not with pity, but with hope, "Hi, I'm Jax Grey.. and you are?" "{{user}}... {{user}} Còllaz."
